And judgment is turned away backward, and justice standeth afar off: for truth is fallen in the street, and equity cannot enter.

并且公平转而退后，公义站在远处；诚实在街上仆倒，正直也不得进入。

公平转而退后，公义站在远处，诚实仆倒在广场上，正直不得进入；

公平转而退后，公义站在远处，诚实仆倒在广场上，正直不得进入；

正义被赶逐，公义不能靠近，真理倒在街上，正直被拒之门外。

公平被迫后退，公义站在远处；诚实在街上跌倒，正直不能进入。

公正被逐退，公义远远地站着，因为真理在广场绊倒，正直不能进来；

並且公平轉而退後，公義站在遠處；誠實在街上仆倒，正直也不得進入。

公平轉而退後，公義站在遠處，誠實仆倒在廣場上，正直不得進入；

公平轉而退後，公義站在遠處，誠實仆倒在廣場上，正直不得進入；

正義被趕逐，公義不能靠近，真理倒在街上，正直被拒之門外。

公平被迫後退，公義站在遠處；誠實在街上跌倒，正直不能進入。

公平轉而退後，義氣正義站在遠處；因為「真實」在街上跌倒着，「端正」不得進入。

公正被逐退，公義遠遠地站著，因為真理在廣場絆倒，正直不能進來；

公平卻退、仁義遙立、誠實顚於衢、正直不得入、

秉公義者、遠遁遙立、言真實者、仆於逵衢、不敢入邑。

公平遠退、義理遙立、真實顛仆於街衢、正直欲入而不能、

So justice is driven back, and righteousness stands at a distance; truth has stumbled in the streets, honesty cannot enter.

So people stop others from doing what is fair. They keep them from doing what is right. No one tells the truth in court anymore. No one is honest there.

Justice is turned back, and righteousness stands far away; for truth has stumbled in the public squares, and uprightness cannot enter.

Our courts oppose the righteous, and justice is nowhere to be found. Truth stumbles in the streets, and honesty has been outlawed.

Justice is turned back, and righteousness stands far off. For truth has stumbled in the public square, and honesty cannot enter.

Justice is turned back, And righteousness stands far away; For truth has stumbled in the street, And uprightness cannot enter.

Justice is turned back, And righteousness stands afar off; For truth is fallen in the street, And equity cannot enter.

And justice is turned away backward, and righteousness standeth afar off; for truth is fallen in the street, and uprightness cannot enter.

Justice is turned back, and righteousness stands far off. For truth has stumbled in the public square, and honesty cannot enter.

Justice is driven back; godliness stands far off. Indeed, honesty stumbles in the city square and morality is not even able to enter.

Justice is turned away backward, and righteousness stands far away; for truth has fallen in the street, and uprightness can’t enter.

None calleth for justice, nor[ any] pleadeth for truth: they trust in vanity, and speak lies; they conceive mischief, and bring forth iniquity.

Therefore the law is slacked, and judgment doth never go forth: for the wicked doth compass about the righteous; therefore wrong judgment proceedeth.

Forasmuch therefore as your treading[ is] upon the poor, and ye take from him burdens of wheat: ye have built houses of hewn stone, but ye shall not dwell in them; ye have planted pleasant vineyards, but ye shall not drink wine of them.

The prophets prophesy falsely, and the priests bear rule by their means; and my people love[ to have it] so: and what will ye do in the end thereof?

Woe unto them that decree unrighteous decrees, and that write grievousness[ which] they have prescribed;To turn aside the needy from judgment, and to take away the right from the poor of my people, that widows may be their prey, and[ that] they may rob the fatherless!

As a cage is full of birds, so[ are] their houses full of deceit: therefore they are become great, and waxen rich.They are waxen fat, they shine: yea, they overpass the deeds of the wicked: they judge not the cause, the cause of the fatherless, yet they prosper; and the right of the needy do they not judge.

How long will ye judge unjustly, and accept the persons of the wicked? Selah.Defend the poor and fatherless: do justice to the afflicted and needy.Deliver the poor and needy: rid[ them] out of the hand of the wicked.They know not, neither will they understand; they walk on in darkness: all the foundations of the earth are out of course.

Which justify the wicked for reward, and take away the righteousness of the righteous from him!

And moreover I saw under the sun the place of judgment,[ that] wickedness[ was] there; and the place of righteousness,[ that] iniquity[ was] there.

Hear this, I pray you, ye heads of the house of Jacob, and princes of the house of Israel, that abhor judgment, and pervert all equity.They build up Zion with blood, and Jerusalem with iniquity.The heads thereof judge for reward, and the priests thereof teach for hire, and the prophets thereof divine for money: yet will they lean upon the LORD, and say,[ Is] not the LORD among us? none evil can come upon us.

How is the faithful city become an harlot! it was full of judgment; righteousness lodged in it; but now murderers.

Woe to her that is filthy and polluted, to the oppressing city!She obeyed not the voice; she received not correction; she trusted not in the LORD; she drew not near to her God.Her princes within her[ are] roaring lions; her judges[ are] evening wolves; they gnaw not the bones till the morrow.

That they may do evil with both hands earnestly, the prince asketh, and the judge[ asketh] for a reward; and the great[ man], he uttereth his mischievous desire: so they wrap it up.The best of them[ is] as a brier: the most upright[ is sharper] than a thorn hedge: the day of thy watchmen[ and] thy visitation cometh; now shall be their perplexity.Trust ye not in a friend, put ye not confidence in a guide: keep the doors of thy mouth from her that lieth in thy bosom.

Ye who turn judgment to wormwood, and leave off righteousness in the earth,
